Age of Dreams

Vol 2 Chapter 2654: The personal computer market?

Of course Xiao Qi is going to the United States, and will go at the end of the month. ∈♀,

On the one hand, I missed two wives and two daughters, and on the other hand, it was also for Disney.

Now that Disney’s share purchase has almost come to an end, and can enter the next stage of privatization at any time, Xiao Qi, who is a little worried about the American character, decided to go to the United States to sit down in person to deal with various problems that may arise.

But before that, Xiao Qi still has a lot of work to do in the country.

For example, what is now before Xiao Qi is an application for the establishment of a personal computer department.

Personal computers, usually not only laptops, but also ordinary desktop computers suitable for personal use.

Needless to say, desktop computers are still widely used in units and companies, and ordinary people usually have one in their homes, so the annual market sales are very high.

Laptop computers are relatively weak.

In the previous life, when the ipad turned out to be born, many people judged that a few years later, the laptop computer will decline.

But the results three years later, the sales of laptop computers have not been greatly affected. This is not only because of the needs of the office crowd, but it proves that many ordinary people still have the need for laptop computers. Tablet computers will not solve a lot of problems. Otherwise, it will not be able to replace the laptop computer at all.

Therefore, Qiao’s facilitator upgraded the tablet computer while making the one that was taken out of the cowhide envelope; this kind of ultra-thin laptop suddenly distinguished itself from ordinary laptops. A new type of definition.

So many people hold ipads while holding them; they really put ordinary laptops aside.

See this situation. In a short period of time, countless laptop manufacturers also immediately followed up, making laptops thinner and more refined, and gradually became the mainstream of laptops, bringing tablets and laptops closer together again. As a result, the period of the decline of laptops has once again been far behind.

It is now the end of 2009; it has been released for more than a year, and it is more successful than the previous life. Its annual revenue has reached 5.8 billion U.S. dollars. This is an extremely dazzling achievement, if it weren't for; too expensive, Apple The system is not compatible with the programs of major third-party developers. I am afraid that this number will not be a problem if it doubles or triples.

Therefore, other manufacturers in this world have also spotted the opportunity. Ultra-thin laptops have been introduced one after another, and sales have also increased slightly. The argument that "tablets replace laptops" that has also appeared in this world has also weakened a lot.

In the strategy department of Fairy Company, there are financial analysis experts and electronic engineering experts from various fields all over the world. Although their scale is small, there are less than 100 people, and they do not work together. Most of them are part-timers, but this does not hinder their professionalism.

Recently they discussed this topic in a dedicated forum. Then he unified this idea and presented it to Xiao Qi.

These strategic experts are not involved in specific operational matters. They just speak out their own ideas, judge the future trend, and whether to accept it. That's a matter for the company's decision-making level.

Even if they don't adopt it, they will continue to make suggestions. This is their job.

Strategic experts think very simple, the current products of Fairy Company have covered many areas of smart electronic devices, as desktop computers and laptops that still have a huge market demand. Then it is more time to enter, in order to increase the extension of one's own industrial chain, and increase the intelligence of computers, which is even more promising.

In fact, Xiao Qi had thought about their plan as early as when he founded the Fairy Company.

But in the end Xiao Qi still didn't implement it. Even though the position of Fairy Company is now completely secured, Xiao Qi still didn't think about personal computers.

The reason is simple. There are too many aspects of personal computers, and the patents inside are even more complicated. The most important hardware and software patents are firmly controlled by foreign companies. If the fairy company enters, except for some of its own appearance and smart patents In addition, more parts will be restricted by foreign giants.

Therefore, when the Fairy Company entered the personal computer market, it turned out to be better than the two patchwork installation companies of Dell and Lenovo, and it would make more money, but this is not what Xiao Qi is pursuing.

Moreover, it is obvious that ordinary electronic devices are completely replaced by smart electronic devices.

Even if it doesn't exist now, it will definitely be in the future.

On smart electronic mobile devices, Xiao Qi is a pioneer, so he can have an advantage, but in personal computers, there are so many patent restrictions that cannot be avoided, so Xiao Qi can only be a follower.

Xiao Qi didn't want to look at other people's faces and act like this.

And your own smart phones, smart tablets, and even smart wearable devices in the future are all promising projects. You don’t need to spend more energy on the personal computer, a project that is destined to be impossible to achieve a great cause, and focus on what you are good at. It’s the best behavior.

But when it comes to the personal computer market, Xiao Qi has very good parts and components, and he can make great profits in this market.

That is from Sharp's tenth-generation LCD technology.

Sharp likes to play high-tech, but because the market can't accept their high-tech, the price is always a constraint, so they have broken themselves by playing.

But this can’t be said that the tenth-generation LCD technology is tasteless.

In fact, in six or seven years, the tenth-generation LCD technology will become a popular trend in the market, and will gradually become the mainstream of the market.

After Xiao Qi obtained this technology, he invested heavily in bringing a group of experts from China, and opened a laboratory at the Sharp headquarters in Osaka to continue the research and development of the practical application of the tenth-generation LCD technology.

In high-end technology, the smaller the product, the more demanding it is.

The LCD screens of smart wearable devices are definitely more difficult than mobile phone screens, and mobile phone screens are definitely more difficult than tablet computer screens.

The simplest is naturally the LCD screen of the TV.

Of course, the simple technology does not mean that the price can be cheap. The cost of the tenth-generation LCD technology has not yet come down, and the yield rate is not high, so Sharp itself broke itself.

Xiao Qi's plan is very simple, unless the tenth-generation LCD screen can reach the point of no loss, otherwise he will not apply this technology to mass production.

Yes, you read it right, just don't lose money.

The first application of a technology is not the era of high price return, but as long as it can bear the loss of the product caused by this technology, then it can be promoted to the market, and then the cost will be continuously reduced through the market penetration rate. So as to reach the point of occupying the market and formulating rules, then it is the most profitable time.

Xiao Qi's LCD products also have new homes. Whether it is Changhong, Amoi, Xoceco, they all have a good relationship with Xiao Qi. As long as Xiao Qi gives them LCD panels, they dare to take them to the market.

Anyway, they all knew that Xiao Qi would not let them suffer.

What's more, Xiao Qi has another killer feature-Xiaoniao tv, this network brand LCD TV, even if it loses more, it is still in the pot and belongs to the family's account.

It's just that the price war that was set off by Changhong is still vivid, but this time they can't let them go to the price war again.

In fact, as Chinese people become more and more wealthy, they are not blindly concerned about prices. For good things, everyone also has more pursuits.

For example, the various luxury goods purchased by mainlanders in Hong Kong in the past few years, such as the popularity of high-end electronic products in the past two years, are specific to the sales of the products of Fairy Company and Apple in China, and the consumption of Chinese people Ability is unexpectedly strong.

If it can cleverly combine market demand with the tenth-generation LCD screen, then it will not be an illusion to defeat the opponent and completely lead the market in technology.

LCD TVs are actually a bit thankless, with high costs and low profits.

What Xiao Qi really wants is to wait until the marketization of the tenth-generation LCD technology is mature, and use it on smart wearable devices and mobile phones.

The so-called retina screen in the previous life is only the ninth-generation liquid crystal technology. If you really encounter Sharp’s tenth-generation LCD technology, you will definitely be defeated.

Now Apple is also developing a retina screen, which is said to be used on the third or fourth generation of Apple mobile phones, or the first generation of Apple tablet computers.

According to some news from Apple~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Apple’s tablet computer is still called ipad, but it must be much more advanced than the previous life. Personality, it's impossible to make a product just for collecting money.

As for the same retina screen technology, Fairy has actually obtained it from Samsung, and it will be used on smart electronic devices at most next year, not to mention the tenth-generation LCD technology backed up.

Xiao Qi remembers that in 2013, Apple's mobile phones did not use the tenth-generation LCD technology, and Samsung did not either.

This means that the fairy company has been ahead of it at least around 2015. Such a huge technological advantage will play a very important role for the fairy company's products to continue to lead the market.

To make smart electronic products, software is very important, but hardware is equally important!

Only by staying ahead in all aspects and continuously studying and making progress, the products of Fairy Company can continue to be successful!
